I agree, Jeremy. Several people have been trying to educate people about that in the comment section. A picture is worth 1000 words, but aquaponics can't be summed up in a single image. Hopefully the owners of the FB page will now do a followup post or two given the amount of response that post has gotten.

Too bad that picture showed a 60' by 5' by 13 foot deep fish tank. I don't think the average person can grasp the scalability of something like aquaponics

Check out Apex Aquaponics. This system has a feature others don't . It's emulates the UVI method , S-RAC 454... Wow , it's production, production, production, ! They have these systems in Texas jails teaching the prisoners how to grow Food of the Future..,,,,Today ! The food was recently tested by the USDA in their laboratory , and the results was 100% chemical free, the highest quality they have ever tested.. Check out GlobalAquaponics.net for more info...,,, wow! Also on Facebook too!

A Aquaponics system that's has a media in the beds traps solids and has to be drained in order to clean it.....where the Apex System has no" media and allows you to drain off the fish waste which is the best natural fertilizer in the world..,,, the real secret is clean fish practices that makes this machine run like a race horse! Apex Aquaponics is on the right path.... Check it out and see for yourself....... Conesiuers Food for sure!
